Judge blocks the Trump administration's National Science Foundation research funding cuts

Judge Indira Talwani blocked a policy change in Boston. Universities feared losing millions for research. Artificial intelligence and cybersecurity work was at risk. The NSF's move was arbitrary, the judge said. Indirect costs were the issue.
